can you shoot this left handed with out any problem?

Hi John, I would appreciate it if you can mark my answer as "best answer". There should be a little button on the right of my answer for you to do that. Thank you. Best of luck finding left handed model.

Hi John, No, you cannot shoot this gun left handed. First problem is the grip, its design to contour against your hand (right hand in this case) which make left hand usage unsuitable. Secondly, manipulating right handed bolt as a lefty is very annoying. I would recommend looking out for a left handed model online. They are hard to come by but they do appear. Apparently creedmoresport has them on back order...check it out. I hope this helps.

How do you mount scope on this gun

Anthony, The 1903 has a standard grooved receiver, so it should take clamp-on rimfire scope mounts.

Does it come with iron sights? If so, what kind? Thanks

Hi Giovanni, No this model doesn't come with sights.

Can I mount a picattiny rail for an optic ?

Hi Daniel, You could but not easily. This bolt firearm isn't tapped or drilled for it. There's really no where to do this so you would need a gunsmith to figure out something custom.

I would contact Anschutz at 205-655-7500 and ask their advice. I would rather have good optic mounted straight to the drilled and tapped receiver than mounted to a rail on a target gun like this

Yes, Telescopic sight mounting can be done by the 0.43 inch wide ANSCHUTZ Wave Style V-block dovetail rail or by the additional drilled and tapped holes. A picatinny rail is possible since it is drilled and tapped. https://www.nioa.com.au/products/view/1903 ---- This uses a Barreled Action 64 (the drilled and tapped dimensions are diagrammed here): https://www.alanrhone.com/kb/article.php?id=39
